The Perfect Brownie Pan

You can hardly go wrong with anything made out of chocolate!&nbsp; But have you ever really made a &ldquo;perfect brownie?&rdquo;The $20 &ldquo;Perfect Brownie Pan&rdquo; claims it won&rsquo;t make anything less!&nbsp; Every piece is supposed to come out, already cut and ready to serve.Since the Sedgwick County Fair is in full swing, we asked two seasoned 4-H bakers to try it out.The &ldquo;secret&rdquo; seems to be a divider that looks like a checkerboard.&nbsp; It goes into the batter (after you&rsquo;ve poured it into the pan) and supposed to make sure the brownies bake into uniformed-sized rectangles.&nbsp; The only problem?&nbsp; You have to grease and flour every single side and corner! Both Aidan and Melanie find that takes a lot more work than regular brownies. &ldquo;You get lost on what you&rsquo;ve done and haven&rsquo;t done!&rdquo; laughs Jodi Besthorn, their sponsor.After all that work, our young bakers have serious doubts about whether the divider will really go all the way through the batter.&nbsp; If it doesn&rsquo;t touch the pan below, they say it won&rsquo;t really cut through the brownies. And Melanie has high expectations!&ldquo;I want to see edges straight and no brownie parts on the dividers.&rdquo;After thirty minutes, we have our answer.&nbsp; Every brownie comes out---minus one that sticks a bit to the divider. And even though it looked like the sides may not have been cut through all the way, each piece slides right out.&nbsp; Every piece is a rectangle with smooth sides!And the edges aren&rsquo;t as crunchy as the kids feared they might be.Does It Work?&nbsp; They all say yes.&nbsp; However, Melanie says it&rsquo;s a lot more work than &ldquo;regular&rdquo; brownies. &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t think it&rsquo;s worth it,&rdquo; she muses between bites. &ldquo;My mom can cut brownies perfect!&rdquo;You can buy The Perfect Brownie Pan at Walmart, Target and Walgreens.
